Many years ago, I discovered a gorgeous tomato
variety
called
"SunGold".
It retailed briefly and disappeared from trace.
(You
can
still
buy
seeds
for it). In it's place we have SunBurst,
SunBlush,SunDream all
of
which
may as well be called "Sun****". I really can't
remember
the
last
time
I
bought tomatoes *anywhere* in the UK. Even
(especially)
from
"farm
shops". They are universally bland.

I now know why so many European ex-pats in the UK
grow
their own
veg.

And don't get me started about apples......

See above.

Have you noticed that the vast majority of
supermarket
tomatoes
have
*very* thick and tough skins?

I don't see what all the fuss is about, all potatoes
and
tomatoes
taste
fine to me.

Fine, but the rest of us can tell the difference in
taste.

Never heard anyone say that before.

Then you need a hearing aid, bad.

Especially with potatoes which have almost no flavour
anyway,

Even sillier than you usually manage. Your taste buds
are
****ed.

they're always mixed with other foods which have a
taste
to
them.

Not always.

Apples, oranges, they're tasty.

Yes.

Eating a potato on it's own is like eating bread.

Depends on what you do with it. Lovely roasted in a fire.

But you need to add stuff to give it flavour.

Nope. Just cook a good potato properly.

Cooking won't magically give it flavour.

Even sillier and more pig ignorant than you usually manage.

Raw meat has much less flavour than after its cooked.

They're bland.

Not when cooked properly they arent.

Still nothing like tasty fruits.

and even less like a kebab.

That tastes like ****.

you told me everything smelt and tasted the same.

No, all meat tastes the same.

Even sillier than you usually manage. The best roast leg of lamb
tastes nothing even remotely like the best steak, or a piece of
chicken breast.


Don;t worry he can;t tell his feet from his shoes adn
he hits his head on door frames because he can;t
work out where his eyes are in realtion to his head.


It doesn't suprise me he can;t tell the differnt between meats,


Yeah. all that banging of his head on everything is what
has ****ed him between the ears completely, quite apart
from the ear to ear dog **** he started with.

Fortunately you lot are paying his benefits, not me.


Actually everybody pays their own benefits because they tax everything
here.


Another lie. Fresh food has no VAT.

Neither does the air you breath.

but the fact he thinks they all taste the same does show he
has more serious problems than learning how to wear clothes.


And he can't even be chained to the wall in Bedlam anymore.

Still, we are free to poke a stick at him in here with no risk of getting
bitten...


Are you admitting to being a troll?


I **** on pathetic excuses for trolls like you from a great height.
